usoft, one of the larger video gaming companies out there, has a somewhat troubled history of overburdening its games with awful drm. and, as with most drm systems, the people it tends to hurt most are the legitimate purchasers who somehow run afoul of whatever drm rules are in place. in this case, the usoft game rainbow six: vegas2 (r6v2) had some drm that would check to see if the physical media (cd-rom) was in the drive before it would let you play. unfortunately, usoft also offered the game as a download via ign's direct2drive store. they had set it up so this would work even without the actual cd, but a recent patch didn't take that into account, and broke the game for anyone who had purchased it via d2d.

so, what does usoft do? it releases a patch that isn't actually a "patch" but a well known crack that it downloaded off the internet. as torrentfreak points out at the link, according to the way companies like usoft look at things, it "stole" someone else's code and ped it off as its own. and, of course, there's the somewhat delicious irony that it didn't just "steal" any code for its own use, but the very code that companies like usoft insist is evil, imm and illegal. except, of course, when usoft is in desperate need of it, apparently.

"kung fu panda" is a jack black movie, except animated. and, as such, it's ok: amusing, well drawn, scrappy. but there's a sense of waste, given who else was in the cast.

danny argues that google is unfairly inating the firefox toolbar. i think he's right. microsoft is not even among the choices, and google is the default. google, of course, represents the majority of mozilla's revenues (mozilla is the company behind firefox).

danny's most interesting point is how hard google fought to keep microsoft from making live search the default in internet explorer. but google's actions with firefox are making it increasingly likely microsoft will act to change that stance. that's what i meant when i said microsoft is "lying in the weeds" a few months ago.
